Power lines ignited the massive Texas wildfires, officials said on Thursday. Utility company Xcel Energy said its power lines sparked the Smokehouse Creek fire in the Texas panhandle. “Based on currently available information, Xcel Energy acknowledges that its equipment appears to have been involved in an ignition of the Smokehouse Creek fire,” the company stated. The deadly Texas wildfires have scorched over 1 million acres, killed thousands of livestock and destroyed crops. Ranches burned, highways were shut down and thousands were evacuated. The number of cattle killed in the wildfires is not known at this time. Massive wildfires engulfed parts of the Texas panhandle this week amid gusty winds and unseasonably warm weather. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/03/power-lines-ignited-massive-texas-wildfire-officials/ An area off the coast of Washington state is being shaken by hundreds and hundreds of earthquakes. So is this an indication of potential trouble for the Cascadia Subduction Zone? At this point, there is so much that we don’t know. Scientists are telling us that the quakes are centered around a large underwater volcano. The underwater volcano does not pose a threat at all, but if an enormous earthquake along the Cascadia Subduction Zone were to trigger a giant tsunami that slams into the west coast, that would be a historic disaster of epic proportions. The frequency of the earthquakes that we are witnessing off the coast of Washington is extremely alarming. It is being reported that earlier this month there were “as many as 200 in a single hour”… According to one of the experts who has been monitoring this area, there were over 2,000 earthquakes in a single day… ...what happens if this area continues to shake violently and eventually an extremely large earthquake is triggered along the Cascadia Subduction Zone? Such an earthquake could potentially create a colossal tsunami that is hundreds of feet high. A tsunami of that magnitude would cause destruction on a scale that most of us cannot even imagine right now. In 2015, the former head of FEMA’s Region X was quoted by the New Yorker as saying that “everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast”… In the Pacific Northwest, everything west of Interstate 5 covers some hundred and forty thousand square miles, including Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Eugene, Salem (the capital city of Oregon), Olympia (the capital of Washington), and some seven million people. It would be the greatest natural disaster in the entire recorded history of our nation up to that point. Crews are searching for the people who fell into the water after a ship hit Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge early Tuesday, causing it to collapse. The crash and subsequent collapse happened at approximately 1:30 a.m., resulting in vehicles and people falling into the Patapsco River, Breitbart News noted. According to Baltimore Fire Department Chief James Wallace, crews are searching for several victims. He also noted that two individuals have been rescued following the incident, People reported. Video footage shows the moment the ship rammed into the bridge and the moment the structure fell into the river below: [at the link] According to Breitbart News, there were reportedly serious problems with the MV Dali prior to the crash. Its power went out a few minutes beforehand. “Now the BBC notes ‘an unclassified memo’ from the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) states it has confirmed the ship ‘lost propulsion’ before hitting the bridge,” the report stated. I'm thinking that this bridge falling, the Francis Scott Key Bridge, named after the man who wrote the Star Spangled Banner, our national anthem, was possibly a sign that America itself is also going down. Nice connection Patricia, I think you may be correct.Utility Company’s Power Lines Ignited Massive Texas Wildfires: Officials:
